Do you think there are any RESPIRATORY issues associated with smoking weed?

[Robert DeLong]

Well I can't really say if it actually does or doesn't. But I personally think it does. You're taking in smoke, and smoke is not healthy for the lungs.

Especially on a repeated basis over many years.

It may cause health issues related to taking in that smoke or you might be one of the lucky ones who go their entire life without experiencing those issues. But I think it has affects on everyone over repeated usage for many years. Especially when you start becoming more sedentary and less active.

I know I tire easily now that I'm 66, and have to take several breaks when exerting energy. Walking has become more difficult as well. But a lot of that has been my becoming inactive after I hit about 35 and working at a computer all day, as I have for decades.

Great career, but I needed to balance that time behind the computer with more physical activity.

Vaping instead of smoking greatly reduces, perhaps even eliminates, dangers of the toxic and carcinogenic compounds that are released through combustion. In the case of vaping, temperatures used are kept below the level needed for combustion.
